Are the Ryzen 3rd generation CPUs good for Premiere Pro?

Depending on how you look at it, choosing between the new AMD Ryzen CPUs and the Intel 9th Gen CPUs is either a very easy, or a very complicated, question to answer. It is easy because there is a clear winner in specific situations, but complicated because there is no single overall best choice. From the testing we have done, it largely comes down to whether you meet one of the three following criteria:

Do you work with H.264 or H.265 media?
In this case, the Intel 9th Gen CPUs have a pretty commanding lead (especially with 10-bit footage) due to the fact that Premiere Pro supports hardware acceleration of H.264 and H.265 (HEVC) media via Intel Quick Sync. This feature isn't available on AMD processors (or on the Intel X-series), which makes CPUs like the Intel Core i9 9900K simply the best option for this type of media.

Do you work with RED footage?
Here, the higher raw performance of the new AMD Ryzen CPUs allows it to take a significant lead over the Intel 9th gen CPUs - although they can't quite catch up with the higher-end (and much more expensive) AMD Threadripper or Intel X-series CPUs. However, this is one area that is highly subject to change since RED is working on moving more of the processing of RED media from the CPU to the GPU. This is expected to be bundled into one of the next few Premiere Pro releases, at which point we may find that the CPU no longer makes more than a minor impact on performance when working with RED footage.

Do you use Neat Video for noise reduction?
If you use Neat Video, there is simply no contest: use an AMD Ryzen 3rd generation processor. Performance is up to 60% faster when using only the CPU, but even with Neat Video set to use both the CPU and GPU (with a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti) we still saw a 20-30% performance gain with Ryzen over a comparably priced Intel CPU.
